Sacramento Kings
Mining For Good
The Sacramento Kings are no stranger to innovation and new technology. The team installed solar panels on their stadium to offset power needs on game day, and to give back to the local power grid on non-game days. The team was also among the first major sports teams to accept Bitcoin as payment for tickets and merchandise.
In 2018 the team wanted to leverage their solar power, on-site data center, and high-speed connectivity to do more for the local community. After a meeting with MiningStore, the solution became clear: putting these assets to use for mining cryptocurrency would generate value in the form of mining rewards.
